To reveal a comprehensive inventory of other available symbols, activate the "Show All" key button, which will then populate a list of all accessible currency pairs.

To conserve internet bandwidth, particularly with mobile devices or pay-per-MB internet plans, streamline your trading activity.

To optimize bandwidth usage while trading, create a list of up to 10 instruments that you plan to trade. After selecting your preferred pairs, hit the "Hide All" button to exclude unnecessary pairs from the list, reducing your data usage significantly.

Even if saving bandwidth is not a concern, you can choose to "Hide All," which will save your computer's processor power and RAM, especially for brokers who offer many MT4 quotes and trading tools: there is no need for all 100 or 200 financial instruments to stream on your platform because you only need about 10 live quotes or just a few financial instruments to trade. You can always "Show All," then pick a new pair by opening a chart, and then hide all: your new choices will be added to this shortened list.
